Sunny, confident cutie × mature, dependable older man
They fall in love at first sight.
When they meet again, Xie Yunzhou shows up at Pei Zhao’s door with a cat named Coffee Bean and says, “Hello, neighbor. Your cat came to my house.”
Pei Zhao never imagined this man would become her neighbor, or that her hopeless cat would fall for his cat and sneak over to his place all day long.
Xie Yunzhou: “What should we do about your Coffee Bean liking our Alice?”
Pei Zhao: “If it’s causing you trouble, I’ll move.”
Xie Yunzhou: “Then what should I do about liking you?”
Pei Zhao: “Then I’ll ask whether our Coffee Bean likes you~”
Xie Yunzhou: “If it doesn’t like me, does that mean you don’t like me either?”
Pei Zhao: “If it doesn’t date, then neither do I.”
A little while later, pet shop owner Ji Qinghuan sees Pei Zhao and Xie Yunzhou’s posts on her social media feed.
Pei Zhao: “Alice won Coffee Bean’s heart~” But the photo underneath shows her holding hands with Xie Yunzhou.
Ji Qinghuan: “Where’s the cat? Who’s the one dating here?”
Xie Yunzhou is even more direct: “We have a silly cat at home.” The photo shows Pei Zhao in his jacket, eating spicy hot pot from a street stall, in profile.
Ji Qinghuan: “The cats are in love, and you two are lovesick too, huh? Get off my feed!!”
